20130227878 | CORROSION INHIBITOR COMPOSITIONS FOR OXYGENATED GASOLINES - This invention relates to corrosion inhibitor additive combinations giving long acting performance in oxygenated gasoline blends comprising either low carbon number (<3) or high carbon number (greater than or equal to 4) alcohols or mixtures thereof and adapted for use in fuel delivery systems and internal combustion engines. The invention also is concerned with a process for conferring anti-corrosion properties to oxygenates in gasoline fuel mixtures wherein the oxygenate comprises biologically-derived butanol. | 09-05-2013 |
20130183731 | FERMENTIVE PRODUCTION OF FOUR CARBON ALCOHOLS - Methods for the fermentative production of four carbon alcohols is provided. Specifically, butanol, preferably isobutanol is produced by the fermentative growth of a recombinant bacterium expressing an isobutanol biosynthetic pathway. | 07-18-2013 |
20130157324 | IN SITU EXPRESSION OF LIPASE FOR ENZYMATIC PRODUCTION OF ALCOHOL ESTERS DURING FERMENTATION - Disclosed herein are methods of producing alcohol esters during a fermentation by providing alcohol-producing microorganisms which further comprise an engineered polynucleotide encoding a polypeptide having lipase activity. | 06-20-2013 |
20100221801 | YEAST WITH INCREASED BUTANOL TOLERANCE INVOLVING A MULTIDRUG EFFLUX PUMP GENE - Increasing tolerance to butanol in yeast has been accomplished by decreasing activity of Pdr5p encoded by an endogenous PDR5 gene. A deletion mutation of the PDR5 gene led to improved growth yield in the presence of butanol. Yeast cells with reduced Pdr5p activity, or other multidrug resistance ATP-binding cassette transporter protein activity encoded by CDR1 or BFR1, and a butanol biosynthetic pathway may be used for improved butanol production | 09-02-2010 |
20100167365 | YEAST WITH INCREASED BUTANOL TOLERANCE INVOLVING HIGH OSMOLARITY/GLYCEROL RESPONSE PATHWAY - Increasing tolerance to butanol in yeast has been accomplished by increasing activity of the high osmolarity/glycerol response pathway. Yeast with increased expression of PBS2p, a mitogen activated protein kinase kinase of the MAPK module of the high osmolarity/glycerol response pathway may be used for improved butanol production. | 07-01-2010 |
20100167363 | YEAST WITH INCREASED BUTANOL TOLERANCE INVOLVING FILAMENTOUS GROWTH RESPONSE - Increasing tolerance to butanol in yeast has been accomplished by increasing activity of the filamentous growth response. Yeast with increased expression of MSS11 | 07-01-2010 |
20100129887 | INCREASED PRODUCTION OF ISOBUTANOL IN YEAST WITH REDUCED MITOCHONDRIAL AMINO ACID BIOSYNTHESIS - Yeast cells with reduced activity of certain enzymes involved in branched chain amino acid biosynthesis in yeast mitochondria are described. Target enzymes include threonine deaminase, isopropylmalate synthase, and optionally branched chain amino acid transaminase. | 05-27-2010 |
20100129886 | PRODUCTION OF ISOBUTANOL IN YEAST MITOCHONDRIA - Yeast cells with modified expression of certain enzyme activities in the mitochondria are described for isobutanol production. Modifications described provide an isobutanol biosynthesis pathway in the yeast mitochondria. | 05-27-2010 |
20100120105 | CARBON PATHWAY OPTIMIZED PRODUCTION HOSTS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ISOBUTANOL - A microbial host cell is provided for the production of isobutanol. Carbon flux in the cell is optimized through the Entner-Doudoroff pathway. | 05-13-2010 |
